CONTACTLESS MAGNETOSTRICTIVE LINEAR POSITION TRANSDUCER
(ANALOG  OUTPUT)

Main characteristics
• ONDA technology
• Optimised mechanical structure
• Strokes from 50 to 4000mm
• Sliding or floating magnetic cursor
• Availability of several analogue outputs (voltage or current)
for direct position and speed measurement or reverse
measurement (only position)
• Single or double cursors models availability
• Power supply 24Vdc ±20%
• Resistance to vibration (DINIEC68T2/612g)
• IP67 protection
• Work temperature: -30...+75°C

Contactless linear position transducer with ONDA magneto-

strictive technology.
The absence of electrical contact on the cursor eliminates all
wear and guarantees almost unlimited life.
Compact size for simple installation.
TECHNICAL DATA Full protection against outside agents for use in harsh envi-
ronments with high contamination and presence of dust.
Model From 50 to 4000 mm Excellent linearity, repeatability, resistance to mechanical
